School’s out. The backpacks are tossed in the corner. The alarm clocks are finally getting a break. ☀️

Now it’s time to really dive into summer and see what fun is happening around Grant County.

From festivals and community events to local activities and family fun, there is SO much going on for the rest of May and heading into June. Honestly… if someone says “there’s nothing to do around here,” they might just not be looking hard enough. 👀

You can find the full Events Guide inside the We Are Grant County app, but we wanted to give you a quick look at what’s coming up. Take a scroll, mark your calendars, gather your people, and let’s make this a summer full of memories, small-town moments, and community connection.

Grant County… y’all are keeping summer BUSY, and we love to see it. https://online.fliphtml5.com/wearegrantcounty/Events-2026/

🚨 The We Are Grant County Android App is now entering testing on the Google Play Store! 🚨

First off, thank you to everyone who has supported this project, signed up inside the app, shared posts, encouraged the vision, and believed in building something positive for our community. Because of your support, I’m opening the testing phase to the FIRST 100 users who would like to help test the app before the official public launch.

You can join the Android test here:
https://play.google.com/apps/internaltest/4701714287749239920

A quick note: during this testing phase, Google may still display the app under a temporary or different name. This is normal and will eventually update to officially display as “We Are Grant County Ky.”

🍎 Apple/iPhone testing is also currently in the works and will be available soon.

Inside the app you’ll find:
📅 Local events
🏢 Businesses & organizations
🎙 Podcasts
📖 Digital magazine
🛍 Yard sales
📍 Community information
…and much more.

If you decide to help test the app, I would truly appreciate your feedback. Thoughts, ideas, bugs, issues, or suggestions can be sent through Facebook Messenger or emailed to:
📧 [email protected]

This project has always been about creating a positive, organized place centered around Grant County and the people who make this community special.

Thank you all again for the support. 🐸

🎙️ NEW EPISODE NOW AVAILABLE 🎙️ What happens when hard work, community roots, and relentless determination all collide? You get a story like this one. We sat down with Jennifer Haubner-Vories for a conversation about growing up in Grant County, building a career in real estate, investing in yourself, and why giving back still matters. https://youtu.be/DWy-1RLDCI8?si=6JNysJmFdE2bXxXg

From working at the casino to building a successful business, Jennifer shares the real story behind the hustle — the setbacks, the lessons, the work ethic, and the drive that pushed her forward. This episode is honest, motivating, and full of reminders that success usually starts with small-town roots and a whole lot of grit.

Yeah… this one goes deeper than real estate.

You know the pizza… but do you know the story behind the counter? 🍕

Edwardo’s Pizza & Subs has been a Grant County favorite for years—but in this new episode of We Are Grant County, we go beyond the menu and sit down with owner Niki Clemons to talk about family, business, small-town pride, loyal customers, and what it’s really like taking over a hometown staple.

This one is about more than food.
It’s about the people and passion behind a place this community knows and loves.

New episode just dropped… and this one matters. 🎙️ We sat down with Superintendent Todd Moody to talk about what’s really happening inside Grant County Schools—where we’ve been, where we’re going, and how today’s students are being prepared for tomorrow’s world. We went a little longer on this one… because the conversation deserved it.

This isn’t just about test scores and buildings… It’s about opportunity. It’s about growth. It’s about giving kids the tools to build lives they actually want to live.

From facility upgrades to student programs to community support—there’s a lot to be proud of, and even more to look forward to.
